despite warhammer 40k: kill team's dubious lot in life to be a digitally distributed tie-in for the upcoming warhammer 40k: space marine release, the game actually stands on its own as a competent twin-stick shooter. it feels like a game that could be much more if thq wanted it to be.

my hands-on e3 demo of the game began by selecting my space marine and clan. the options included ranged fighters like the sternguard veteran and techmarine, while the melee classes included the vanguard veteran and librarian. you'll be able to swap out weapons and equip your soldier with classic 40k items of death like the chainsword and power sword -- speaking of which, to obtain the power sword in space marine, the game needs to see you've completed one level of kill team.
